In the past several days, I’ve noticed that comments that I make on this instance to cross-instance communities started to take up to several hours to propagate to the community’s home instance, and now do not seem to propagate at all.
I’ve noticed the issue on lemmy.world, lemmynsfw.com, and lemmy.ml. Several comments I made today in a programming.dev community went through more or less instantly, though.
Has anyone else noticed this?
I was searching through the github and came across this comment on an issue: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/4039#issuecomment-1773482259
I tried updating the timestamp for every instance in the DB to now(). We’ll see if that helps anything.
It looks like it’s not just my comments. If I view midwest.social communities like !theonion@midwest.social or !lordofthememes@midwest.social on lemmy.world or lemmy.ml, the newest posts are between 3 and 5 days old. Communities less than 5 days old, like !religiouscringetards@midwest.social, just don’t show up at all.
This has also been happening to me.
Yes, this is a known issue amongst quite a few smaller instances. Nobody knows why yet.
